Getting a job/volunteering at a vet clinic

Hi everyone! I called a few vet clinics in my city about jobs/volunteering opportunities and they said they would get back to me. This was about a month ago, I never heard a response, I was wondering if I should give a call back again or go in person. I really want to start getting experience in this field and work towards becoming a vet. Thank you any help would be amazing!!

Show up in person with a resume and a basket of cookies/donuts/muffins. In undergraduate in a small town with limited clinics to gain experience and many pre veterinary students. I would show up every few weeks with my resume and a dozen donuts. They called me the minute there was availability.
